Jiri, would you please provide the source from which you took these measurements?
I think this may be sorta what you're looking for...

I can't make heads or tails of it, but you're welcome to try.
There is a way to solve a practically unsolvable puzzle - by knowing the solution a priori(my emphasis). Such uncommon luck was on my side. I had known the solution to the Nasca monkey beforehand, since it was basically identical to the geometrical solution I had found for a 14,000 years old Stone Age engraving from La Marche, France!
Osiris numbers
They had observed frequent worldwide occurance of numbers such as 12, 16, 30, 36, 45, 54, 72, 108, 144, 216, 360, 432, 649, 864, 1296, 1728 in ancient mythology, art, architecture, and mensuration systems.
It always amazes me that numerologists place special significance on units that are entirely manmade. There is nothing magical about seconds or inches, base ten itself is a human construct and has no relation to the universe at large. I very much doubt that whatever units Jiri has chosen to use were known by the prehistoric artist, or even invented yet.
Let's take 54 as an example. It has exactly 8 factors: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, and 54. The number 36, on the other hand, has 9 factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 36. So, 36 has more factors than 54.
Your statement, above, is false.
(And, if you think 36 isn't really within 54's range, maybe you'd accept 48. It has 10 factors.)
Ok, I can accept that as a working definition of Osiris numbers. Since 25,920 = 26 34 51, it is a simple matter to enumerate all 70 factors of 25,920 (including 1 and itself).
If those 70 numbers are the entire set of Osiris numbers, then you gave a precise definition. Are there other Osiris numbers that are not a factor of 25,920? Are any of the factors not Osiris numbers?
Hmm, had to look the guy up to learn what kind of insult you treated me to. It was a bad one. You must be blind to think that that guy and me have anything in common.
If those 70 numbers are the entire set of Osiris numbers, then you gave a precise definition.

What do you do when your findings don't match the definition of what you were looking for?
Change the definition!
Man, I'm glad we solved all those pesky mysteries.
Jiri, you haven't yet answered these simple questions:
1) Which prehistoric engraving are you talking about?
1a) Can you provide us with any independant data that confirms this engraving's existence and properties?
2) How did you determine which elements were "significant" to measure and which were not?
3) What numerical system did you use for your measuring?
3a) Would that numerical system be significant in any way to a prehistoric man?
4) What tools did you use to measure?
Until you answer these questions, we'll treat your "findings" as nothing more than numbers pulled out of thin air because hey, you can.
Atlantis, The Nazca lines, The "face" on Mars, etc... the usual suspects. He seems to have applied his... ahem... whathaveyou, to all of them.
And get this... it worked! What a coinkydink!
BTW, I have not really applied to the Face on Mars. Just checked it out for being a Golden rectangle, and was rather surprised that its perimeter turned out to be a composition of three such rectangles.

The engravings are being stored away in secure vaults, I understand.
All the fifteen hundred La Marche engravings should be published. Since it is hard to distinguish the often finely engraved lines from a photograph, scale tracings of all engraved lines would be preferable.
Since I have only a few reproductions of engravings from La Marche in my possession, I must have gazed at those a great deal more than others. In this case, familiarity breeds admiration, as so often happens with great art. The chaos in the engravings is illusory, and due to overloaded senses.
The engraving's distance units find parity with our metric system, when magnified to double-size. Understandably, my measurements were rounded to the nearest millimeter, the finest detail available on my ruler.
I must confess that I first saw the engraving in Däniken's much villified "Chariots of the Gods"... To many this is an utterly negative reference. But, look at the difference in our respective depths of approach.
